Also her sisters Georgie Phillips, Jeannette Levesque, Anne Wishnowski, Cleone (Bill) Roussin, brothers George (Lita), Reg (Teri), sister-in-law Elma Houssin and numerous nieces and nephews. Lou was born April 17, 1924 in Winnipeg to William and Henriette Gagnon. She married her beloved Simon in 1942. Lou had a very outgoing personality and was such a people person. She made friends wherever she went. Some of her many talents were knitting, sewing, crocheting, baking homemade bread and pies. She loved her family and friends dearly. Her love for Bingo earned her the nickname "Lucky Lou". She would relay her wins or "sweats" to everyone. She will be truly missed. Rest in Peace Mom. "A bright light was dimmed on earth to shine brightly in the Heavens above". A memorial service will be held at Coutu's Funeral Chapel, 680 Archibald St. on Saturday, January 18 at 1:30 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a charity of one's choice.

  • Once you met Lucille, you could never forget her. Lucille and my father-in-law were residents at the Misericordia Health Centre this past summer and that was when I had the good fortune to meet her. She was the shining light that made everyone's stay just a little bit better. No one could resist Lucille. Her smiling face just made you feel at home. Rest in peace knowing that you made this world a happier place just by being you. Cheryl Lisoway - Posted by: Cheryl Lisoway (Friend) on: Jan 16, 2014
